That is not fair. The greens love industry. Afterall they will need people to push their green limos.
They will need people to make sandals that don’t blow out when pushing their limos.
Last proof is that they need people to gently swing palm leaves because watching people push your car is exhausting.

Then there’s the service industries of tealeaf reading, tarot interpretation, crystal application, fire gazing, meditiation, astral travel, tantric rumpy pumpy and phyto-conversation, not to mention essential performance production such as Morris dancing, ensuing a bountiful harvest and much fecundity.

As Margaret Thatcher said - the problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money.

Tim,
Every day I hear and read comments that Australians can not afford to run home appliances, water heaters and the like because even now they can not afford to pay for their electricity.

Even KK has stated in this election campaign that the Gillard Government’s carbon tax will increase the cost of living. KK is campaigning by offering electricity rebates to NSW residents on less than $150K / pa. This sort of enticement to vote Labor only makes people more and more dependant on Government handouts and less self-sufficient, less self-reliable and far less self-confident. Do we really want this to happen to us? I certainly don’t.

Tony Abbott is right. We don’t want or need three new taxes. We need Industry, employment and a strong robust economy. Gillard is spiralling the PEOPLE of this Nation down into unrecoverable debt. She is heaping more tax on us while driving up our cost of living. People can’t pay their bills and can’t afford their mortgages. More people are having to walk away from their dream of owning their own homes and living as well as their parents lived. Labor Governments are the death of democracy. Death of our Australian way of life.

We must wake up and realise we can’t and never will be able to change our climate. That we could is utter lunacy. We must learn to live with what nature hands out and make the most of it. But most of all we need a Government that inspires us improve our lives - not drag us down into the depths of despair and hardship.
